The Benefits of the E-Traffic Ticketing (E-Tilang) System in the Settlement of Traffic Violation in Indonesia

This article deals with the problem of using special technical equipment for automatic recording of traffic violations. The article draws attention to certain important issues concerning administrative liability of vehicle possessors (owners), when a traffic violation is recorded by special automatic equipment, in particular: special characteristics of a subject of administrative offense, exceptions to the «presumption of innocence» principle; peculiarities of administrative proceedings in such cases. When writing this article the authors used the method of comparative legal analysis. The article contains comparative analysis of administrative legal rules of the Russian Federation, and those of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Republic of Belarus. The main conclusion of the study performed is that lawmakers have not sufficiently examined the issue of imposing administrative liability on vehicle owners for the offenses, recorded by special technical equipment, operating in the automatic mode, which leads to some problematic aspects in legal regulation of relevant administrative relations.

Introduction: This study aims to explore the attitudes towards riding safety, behavior regarding safety gear, documents, and vehicle and riding preparedness, and perceived road conditions among worker and student motorcyclists, and the influence of these on their violation behavior. Methods: To further explore the violation behavior, the effects of the infrastructure quality, personal and travel characteristics, and the experience of accidents were also included in the variables. This study collected data on motorcycle users’ behavior in Bandung City and used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Results and Discussion: This research underlines that behavior regarding safety gear, documents, and vehicle and riding preparedness is an important factor that decreases the violation behavior. Interestingly, a positive attitude towards safe riding does not straightforwardly lead to better behavior in preparing the vehicle, safety gear, and documents. Conclusion: Good quality infrastructure also promotes a reduction of traffic violations. Improving road infrastructure safety and both promoting and monitoring users’ safe riding behavior are suggested to lower the number of traffic violations.
